Demerit point offences

If you commit a demerit point driving offence in Victoria (or an equivalent offence interstate), you’ll get:

a Traffic Infringement Notice from the agency who issued the infringement (e.g. Fines Victoria) with an associated fine

a record of the offence against your name

the associated number of demerit points.

If you want to contest your Traffic Infringement Notice, you’ll need to follow the instructions on the notice carefully. You may want to contact the issuing agency (e.g. Fines Victoria) directly. Visit fines.vic.gov.au to find out more.
